Still in Mob at Ft.Sill, OK heading to Iraq in August.. Saving up for an overhaul on my 98 Z28 M6. thinking about going 408/414/416. I want more cubes. Plan on running alot of juice. Prob 250-300 hit or so. Any suggestions. Any advice on a good LS2/LS3 build??

If you're wanting to spray a 300 shot, you might want to go with an Iron Block instead of Aluminum. Added protection.

jheath5193

or go turbo like ima do....but yea iron block for sure if your gonna do all that

Are there alot of supporting mods I would need for a turbo?? I'm currently on a stock bottom end 98LS1 spraying 150hp.. Mods are MS3 cam and LS6 intake.. W/ complete fuel system upgrade and LS6 oil pump.. Still on stock heads so I haven't got a ton invested in the LS1 yet.. Which is why I'm open for all options on a rebuild.. I want to shoot for 10s on motor atleast.. Still a street/strip car also.. Full weight.

jheath5193

me and you have the same goals, to have a full weight street car and run low 10s.....i already have a iron block 6.0, which is y i wanna go boosted, plus i get tired of filling nitrous bottles every week.

I've never owned a boosted ride.. Just been sprayin ever since I bought my camaro.. I do like that hit of extra power so I'm wondering if I will like the turbo as well.. I know alot of people go with a SC but if I'm doing a forged engine then Im gonna go Turbo or put a big Hit of juice on it.. Maybe that Direct Port system cause it looks so clean.. I already have the Moser M9 w/ steel spool and 35 spline axles.. Gun drilled and star flanged w/ larger wheel studs.. So I just need to throw some massive torque to it.

You will end up spending more in nitrous than you will with a turbo. And boost is always there. Don't knock a S/C so quick. I still have a small 347 and my car makes over 700 with stock 6.0 heads and pacesetter 1 3/4" headers.

I'm not really knocking the SC.. I know a few people who have them and love them.. But not many people around my area run a turbo.. And I like to be a lil different just to keep things interesting lol.. My LS1 with MS3 cam and LS6 intake alone runs low 12s NA and a low 11sec pass on the juice.. Close to the 10.9x mark now but I wanna drive to the track and run 10s on motor with AC and radio blasting ACDC's highway to hell.. Lol so I'm gonna do a 40X stroker build and give it a lil something extra.. Just haven't decided which ROID to put on it yet..

If you do a decent sized turbo (70mm or larger) on top of a properly built 408 and you can run 9's in a full weight car with the right suspension setup.

Any particular type of k-member I should run with a turbo setup?? I hear there are many to choose from when running a turbo

MrDavid

I'd ask that question in the boosted forums so this thread doesn't get thrown off topic even further.
